Shiv Sena slams Narendra Modi, tells PM to stop bathroom politics
Shiv Sena also asked PM Modi to stop threatening Opposition parties with 'kundali' (horoscopes) in its mouthpiece 'Saamana'.
Days after Prime Minister Narendra Modi's 'raincoat in bathroom' jibe at former PM Manmohan Singh while replying to the President's address in Parliament, Shiv Sena has lashed out at Modi asking him to stop bathroom politics and to maintain the dignity of the post he holds.
Shiv Sena also asked PM Modi to stop threatening Opposition parties with 'kundali' (horoscopes) in its mouthpiece 'Saamana'.
Narendra Modi had launched a surprise attack on Manmohan Singh, saying that politicians should learn from the latter on how to maintain a clean image even after 35 long years of public life dotted with scams under his leadership.
The Prime Minister said, "So many scams occurred... We politicians have a lot to learn from Dr (Manmohan Singh) Sahab. So much happened, there is not a single blot on him. Dr Sahab is the only person who knows the art of bathing in a bathroom with a raincoat on."

- Narendra Modi should maintain the dignity of the Prime Minister's post.
- PM Narendra Modi's statement at rally in UP that he has the horoscopes of political parties is not campaigning, but a direct threat.
- You will be misusing power by taking out horoscopes. People have not voted you in power to take out horoscopes of political parties.
- From time to time, Maharashtra's chief minister also keeps threatening opposition parties with horoscope jibes. But, when you step down from power, then your horoscope will be in somebody else's hands.
- PM Narendra Modi's statement that women cannot come out of their houses during evening in Uttar Pradesh raises a question. The question is when 70 BJP MPs are in the state, then what they are doing? Do they also shut their doors in the evening and stay indoors? They will have to come out in the defense of women in UP.
- It is not a good thing to peep into someone else's bathroom. It should be avoided.
